Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Nonfluent readers struggle with the Stroop interference task less because they have not yet developed automatic processing for reading words. Automatic processing allows for quick and effortless recognition of words, which is what causes interference in the Stroop task when the word's meaning and its ink color conflict. Nonfluent readers rely more on slower, effortful processing, reducing the interference effect.
